Description Wolfgang Pirker 2012-11-02 14:13:07 UTC
Description of problem:
after a click on "Choose an ISO" (below Installation Source) the whole installer window becomes insensitive. 
In the file handler.py it raises a UnicodeDecodeError Exception (see message below Additional info).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
as live medium Fedora-18-Nightly-20121030.09-x86_64-Live-desktop.iso was used.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. below Installation Source->Device ComboBox select a USB thumb drive
2. click on "Choose an ISO"
  
Additional info:

This is fixed in python-meh-0.17-1.fc18 which should soon appear in the images. Actually I though it already is there. Closing as duplicate of bug #854959.
